Mississippi Meatball Ingredients

*Ingredient amounts are located in the recipe card at the end of this post.

• Frozen Meatballs: A bag of your favorite frozen meatballs keeps things super easy—no need to cook from scratch! Go for beef, turkey, or even plant-based options.
• Beef Broth: Adds a savory depth of flavor and keeps everything nice and saucy while it cooks.
• Ranch Seasoning: The secret to that signature tangy, herby flavor! A packet of dry ranch seasoning is all you need.
• Pepperoncini Peppers and Juice: These mild peppers and their tangy brine bring a pop of zesty flavor that takes the dish to the next level.
• Brown Gravy Mix: A packet of gravy mix thickens the sauce and adds rich, comforting flavors to the meatballs.

Instructions

[Step 1] In a mixing bowl, whisk together the beef broth, ranch seasoning, 2-3 tablespoons of peperoncini juice and the brown gravy mix.

[Step 2] Add the meatballs to a crockpot that has been sprayed with nonstick spray and pour the gravy mixture over the top. Top with 8-10 peperoncini peppers and a stick of butter.

[Step 3] Cook on high for 3 1/2 – 4 hours or until the sauce thickens.

[Step 4] Stir the meatballs and serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or make into sandwiches.

How to Store Leftovers

Store your Mississippi meatballs in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. When it’s time to reheat, pop them in a saucepan over medium heat, adding a splash of beef broth or water to loosen up the sauce. Stir occasionally until warmed through.

You can also reheat them in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring in between, for a quick fix. They taste just as amazing the next day—if not better!
